Kernel 6.15 unbootable

I’m also ok with testing the new kernel. So far it’s not working at all though lol.

6.14.2-3 is working great. Just use that and delete the 6.15.

Corrected this in post #6.

Correct that was my mistake.

journal -b > journal-b.txt

changed to:

journalctl -b -1 > journal-1.txt

Users affected by this should boot into what ever version of kernel-desktop-6.14.x you have and remove these:

sudo dnf rm kernel-rc-desktop kernel-desktop-modules-hfs kernel-rc-desktop-modules-hfs hfsutils

Edit: I also forgot that dmesg provides info for current boot. journalctl -k -b -1 is a much better option for that. Corrected that also in post #6.

As far as you logs I passed that on to OM developers. All I can tell is that it stops at this:

May 12 16:47:45 Deez systemd[1]: Started systemd-journald.service - Journal Service.
May 12 16:47:45 Deez systemd[1]: Starting systemd-journal-flush.service - Flush Journal to Persistent Storage...
May 12 16:47:45 Deez systemd-journald[686]: Time spent on flushing to /var/log/journal/9794c032fb424b1fb580ab91cfa70fe0 is 29.287ms for 1120 entries.

I would suggest if you are interested in pursueing this that you try this newer rc version:

kernel-rc-desktop-6.15.0-0.rc5.1-omv2590.x86_64.rpm

Maybe we get lucky and that one has a fix for this problem.

I will try the newer one out tomorrow, thanks!

This solved the issue! The new kernal boots no problem. Thanks for the link and the advice!

That is amazing! Rarely is a fix so easy… But then that is why kernel.org does the rc.x before releasing it as stable version.

I guess it helps my hardware is all rather mainstream, just a boring old intel processor with onboard graphics lol

One thing that helps us is the more hardware things get tested on the more problems get uncovered and fixed. Thanks @Roadsurfer and all other folks using/testing you help us all make things better for OMLx users.
